Wouldn't normally create a thread on defects because it's a shithouse topic, but I'm curious as to how many people from here (if any) got pulled over yesterday for inspection. Seems to me they were having a blitz around the Wantirna area because a mate got done yesterday by the same Knox TMU car that got me earlier in the day. And no, it wasn't Pettett.

Also saw a few modified cars pulled over yesterday on the way home from dinner lastnight, bonnets popped.

I drove through Knox yesterday (and nearly every other day for the past 5 months) and still had no hassles.

The only time I've ever had a run in with police in that area was when I was parked at a school at night (looked suspicious) and they realised that I was driving manual on an auto license.

I guess I'm just lucky.

A couple of my mates got done over the weekend, I knew this was going to happen so my car stayed locked in the garage.

So much for the big crackdown on drink drivers over the easter break...trust the coppers to grab anything they can. Rats.

Left the GTR parked in the garage over Easter. Figured it would be safer given the bad press imports get.... especially over the break.

AU Falcon?

I thought they would be a little old for the police by now?

I got pulled over on monday. I bought the car 2 weeks ago with a roady and still copped a fine for 300 buck for drivin a unroadworthy vehicle.

Only reason I didn't get defected is cos I was on my way to the airport and was in a rush.

It was a RBT on Kellets rd near stud. There was a couple of skylines there getting done too.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
